Abdul El-Sayed said to share 'the same barbaric Islamic ideology as the 9/11 hijackers' and declared unfit for office for life.
Abdul El-Sayed, who is Muslim, is a candidate for the US Senate, and Mike Rogers called him un-American on the eve of the 9/11 anniversary. On September 8, LauraLoomer posted on X that "Abdul El-Sayed shares the same barbaric Islamic ideology as the 9/11 hijackers. He is unfit to ever hold office in America." The post offers no statement or act of El-Sayed's that connects him to the attacks. His religion is the ideology named, the hijackers are the people he is said to share it with, and the conclusion is a lifetime bar from public office. The post drew 190,215 views.
Telling readers that a Senate nominee holds the same ideology as the hijackers, when the only thing named is his religion, makes every Muslim person a hijacker in waiting. Barbaric describes the faith itself. Unfit to ever hold office turns that into a rule: no one of this religion belongs in government.
The word ever settles it. A lifetime bar can't rest on anything he did, because nothing he did is mentioned; it rests on what he is. A fair-minded reader should take this as a Muslim candidate ruled out of public life on his religion, with the hijackers borrowed to make the religion sound like a crime.
